Description

    FIELD OF THE INVENTION
  • The present invention generally pertains to a catheter with a premature neonate closed life support system for use in medical devices, especially a portable MRD device
  • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • Neonates are typically accommodated in incubators in a dedicated premature baby ward or department of a hospital. The incubators are typically not robust and the general health of the neonate is often compromised. Each disturbance or perturbation of the neonate can have deleterious consequences. Nevertheless it is often essential to transfer the neonate to MRI devices and rooms located at a distance from the premature baby ward. This entails disconnecting the neonate from life supporting connection lines and systems and then reconnecting the life supporting connection lines and systems. Such activities may be dangerous to the neonate patients.
  • Various patent documents describe a variety of incubators especially designed for used in conjunction with an MRI device. These prior art incubators a temporary disconnection of the neonate from the life supporting lines and systems. Hence, for example, US Published Patent Application No. 2007/0232894 to Feenan provides an extendable carriage configured to shuttle between the neonate incubator and the magnetic resonance incubator system. U.S. Pat. No. 6,611,702 to Rohling provides an enclosure coupled to life support mechanisms and adapted to maintain a selected environment. An RF coil is included within the enclosure. U.S. Pat. No. 5,800,335 to Koch provides a specialized incubator for use in tomography, as does U.S. Pat. No. 7,278,962 to Lonneker-Lammers.
  • None of the above prior art systems provide a solution for transferring a neonate from an incubator to the MRI device. Providing devices and methods for transferring a neonate, whilst avoiding dangerous exposure of the neonate to the external environment and without endangering the neonate by disconnection of the life supporting connection lines, would fulfill a long felt need.

  • The following description is provided, alongside all chapters of the present invention, to enable any person skilled in the art to make use of the invention and sets forth the best modes contemplated by the inventor of carrying out this invention. Various modifications, however, will remain apparent to those skilled in the art, since the generic principles of the present invention have been defined specifically to provide a premature neonate closed life support system and methods thereof.
  • The term ‘magnetic resonance device’ (MRD) specifically applies hereinafter to any Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) device, any Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscope, any Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) spectroscope, any Nuclear Quadruple Resonance (NQR) or any combination thereof. The MRD hereby disclosed is optionally a portable MRI device, such as the ASPECT-MR Ltd commercially available devices, or a commercially available non-portable device. Moreover, the term ‘MRD’ generally refers to any non-incubator medical devices, at least temporary accommodating the neonate.
  • As used herein, the term “neonate” generally refers to any object or living creature, such as human being or other mammal and preferably refers to babies.
  • As used herein, the term “plurality” refers in a non-limiting manner to any integer equal or greater than 1.
  • The term ‘about’ refers herein to a value of ±25% of the defined measure.
  • Reference is now made to FIG. 1, schematically illustrating in an out-of-scale manner a neonate's incubator. More specifically, an incubator 5 presented in FIG. 1 is provided useful by means of size, shape and dimensions to at least temporarily accommodate in its inner air tight sealed volume 53 a neonate under medical care, e.g., anaesthetics, imaging or other diagnostics or treatment. The incubator 5 comprises, inter alia, operator hand access ports, 51 and 52, for operator hands 3 and 2, respectively. Each one of the ports 51 and 52 comprises a port aperture 54 and 56, located on incubator walls 50 and 55, respectively, and at least two pairs of flexible non-resilient lightweight sealing gas-tight flaps (SFs) (58 and 60) and (62 and 64), disposed within the same plane of the port apertures 54 and 56, respectively, in an overlapping manner, thereby entirely enclosing the respective port apertures 54 and 56. Each pair of the SFs (58 and 60) and (62 and 64) is attached to port aperture edges 66 and 68, respectively and incubator supporting flanges 68 and 70, respectively. The incubator flanges 66 and 68 are attached to the incubator walls 50 and 53 and each member of the pair of flaps (58 and 60) and (62 and 64) are in an overlapping arrangement, as shown in FIG. 1. The members of each pair of flaps (58 and 60) and (62 and 64) are stretched across each respective port aperture 54 and 56 thereby enclosing and defining an interior access zone 80, disposed within the same plane of the port aperture and characterized solely by the port flanges 66 and 68 of each pair of SFs (58 and 60) and (62 and 64).
  • The incubator 50 has a plurality of walls, one of which is wall 54.
  • Reference is now made to FIG. 2, schematically illustrating in an out-of-scale manner the neonate's incubator 50, wherein the premature neonate closed life support system (NCLSS) is located within the inner volume of the incubator 50. The NCLSS system comprises, inter alia, at least one chamber comprising a cradle-like neonate support (32) sized and shaped for accommodating at least one premature neonate 1. CLNS is reversibly transformable from an OPEN configuration, as presented in FIG. 2, in which the CLNS is adapted to couple the neonate with at least one life supporting connection line, prior to insertion into a medical device, such as an MRD; to an air tight CLOSED configuration as presented in FIG. 3, in which the chamber is permeable to magnetic fields and suitable to be set within said MRD device.
  • According to one embodiment of the invention, and in a non-limiting manner, the CLNS is constructed by a plurality of maneuverable flaps, flaps 31-34, wherein in the OPEN configuration, upper flap 33 has a curved cradle-like shape. The neonate 1 is conveniently and safely positioned on top of flap 33. Other curved flaps, namely 32-34, slide beneath flap 31. The CLNS further comprises side wall 30 which is adapted to fit wall 52 as presented in FIG. 1, which is the planar support for communicating a plurality of at least one life supporting connection lines positioned within the incubator, namely lines 40, with those positioned outside the incubator (41).

  • Reference is now made to FIG. 3, schematically illustrating in an out-of-scale manner neonate's incubator 50, wherein all flaps are closed to form air tight capsule 100 in the CLOSE configuration. Neonate 1 is enveloped within capsule 100 having a continuous wall or envelope 10, such that the internal life supporting connection lines 40 are in communication with the external life supporting connection lines 41.
  • Reference is now made to FIG. 4, schematically illustrating in an out of scale manner a portable CLNS 100. According to the embodiment described above, the walls of air tight capsule 100 comprise a shell 10 constructed by four curved flaps 31-34, side walls 30 and 35. The encapsulated environment, i.e., confined volume 20 within the capsule is separated from the outside by shell 10, such that all life supporting connection lines 40 within the capsule are connected to the same outer life supporting connection lines 41. In this manner, transformation of chamber 10 from its OPEN configuration to its air tight CLOSED configuration is provided while the neonate 1 is continuously maintained connected to the at least one life supporting connection line. Dangerous exposure of the neonate to external environment is avoided. Endangering the patient by disconnection of the life supporting connection lines 40 is overcome.
  • While the invention is susceptible to various modifications and alternative forms, specific embodiments thereof have been shown by way of example in the drawings and will herein be described in detail. It should be understood, however, that it is not intended to limit the invention to the particular forms disclosed, but on the contrary, the intention is to cover all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
